| Abstract | This dataset contains 52 vertical profiles of water quality in Tsukumo Bay, Japan, collected from November 2017 to December 2017. The data were collected using a JFE Advantech AAQ-RINKO175 direct-reading water quality meter at a fixed station (37.308139, 137.234222, DEG) northwest of Hourai Island. Measurements were taken monthly from the surface to the bottom, recording depth, water temperature, salinity, electrical conductivity, chlorophyll, turbidity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). The sampling interval was 1 second until July 2018 and 0.1 seconds from August 2018 onwards. The raw data were processed using JFE Advantech's AAQ-RINKO data processing software to generate vertical profiles. The dataset includes only the data collected during the descent from the surface to the seabed, with the turbidity data used to determine the time of bottom contact and exclude data points immediately before touchdown. Data processing was performed at 0.5 m intervals with a layer thickness of ±0.1 m. Data collection began in November 2017 and is still ongoing, with continued measurements planned for the future. | |
